Fancy That is the second mixtape by the English singer-songwriter and record producer PinkPantheress. It was released on 9 May 2025 through Warner Records. It marks her second mixtape release, following her debut mixtape To Hell with It (2021).[3] The mixtape, which runs for around 20 minutes, features production from PinkPantheress herself aswell as Aksel Arvid, The Dare, Count Baldor, Glasear, Jkarri, Phil and Oscar Scheller.
To PinkPantheress, the project felt like the "most tied together project" of her career. She hoped that fans and listeners "can hear the signs of growth" in her as an artist.[4] Upon release, it was met with critical acclaim and reached number three in the UK.
Fancy That has been described as a UK garage and jungle influenced Pop/Electronic record.[1] The "Britain-coded" artwork depicts the singer wearing the Imperial State Crown surrounded by a circle of flowers that is said to represent "everything kitsch and U.K.-centric". For the project, she pulled from "more classic dance music," citing artists such as Basement Jaxx, Groove Armada and Fatboy Slim as her main inspiration. Her goal was to "make music where it sounds like a statement is being made with the songs" and wanted to "take on board" what appealed to her.[6] The album features samples and interpolations from Panic! at the Disco, Jessica Simpson, and Basement Jaxx.[7]
Following the sucess of PinkPantheress's 2023 album, Heaven Knows, and her 2024 'The Capable Of Love Tour', PinkPantheress was launched to new global heights of popularity, notably with US top 10 single Boy's a Liar Pt. 2. PinkPantheress first teased the release date of the mixtape in a cryptic Instagram post in March 2025.[8] The lead single[9][10] "Tonight"[11] was released on April 4, a "clubby tune" that samples "Do You Know What I'm Seeing?" by Panic! at the Disco from their 2008 album Pretty. Odd., it was produced by PinkPantheress as well as Aksel Arvid and Count Baldor.[10][12] On April 6, she shared the tracklist of the mixtape, which includes nine tracks. It also features the track "Romeo" which the singer had been teasing on her TikTok in April 2024.[13] On April 18, the singer announced the release of the second single "Stateside",[11] which was released on April 25. Produced by PinkPantheress and The Dare, the song features 'hypnotic' and 'dreamy' production.[14] The album was released on 9 May 2025, alongside a music video for Illegal.
Fancy That debuted at number three on the UK Albums Chart with first-week sales of 11,126 units, marking PinkPantheress's highest-charting album in her native country thus far.[15] It replicated this performance in Scotland, where it also entered at number three, whilst debuting at number 31 in Ireland.[16][17] On both the Australian ARIA Chart and New Zealand RMNZ Chart, the album debuted at number 12. In the US Fancy That debuted at number 72 on the Billboard 200, marking her third entry on the chart.[18] ''Illegal'' became her second song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, spending one week at number 96.[19]
In support of the mixtape, PinkPantheress embarked on the "An Evening With PinkPantheress Tour", which began on 25 June 2025 in Somerset and will conclude on 13 November 2025 in Oakland.[20] A music video for "Romeo" was released on 13 August 2025.[21] On 6 October, a remix album titled Fancy Some More? was announced with a release date of 10 October. It will feature remixes with artists including Kylie Minogue, Seventeen, and Anitta.
